"Sure did. Couldn't have him harass you now could I?" Cyrus said. He made sure that only she could hear. He then whiped the smirk off his face and began to act as surprised as everyone else. He learned through trial and error that acting innocent is a giveaway, and acting like someone who actually didn't do it means less suspicion towards him.

After a few push ups givin out, Damien was calmed down...though he never found out who had done it, he continued on leading the wagon. Finnally they stopped at the General's tent,her father's tent.
Ari smiled,she had calmed down from laughing,but she still thought it was pretty funny. As soon as the wagon stopped she jumped down off of the wagon and ran into the tent. She hadn't seen her father in close to a year,and was excited to finnally see him again, even if the reason why was for a sad one.
"DAD!"
Running into the tent she smiled as she saw her tall and bulky father standing there,with his usual stoic face. She hugged him as soon as she reached him,her father hugging her back.
He never really smiled,but let out a small grin,which was the best thing to a smile in this family.
"Hello Ember, you look so much more mature from the last time I saw you."
Ari smiled,closing her eyes as she took in her father's scent, only her father called her by her middle name,and it comforted her to hear him through all this drama which had happened.
"I know dad...I know..."

Cyrus followed Ari, though he wasn't in the same rush. He entered the tent shortly after. "Hello General. I havn't seen you in a year. Good to see that you're still a strong leader.

The General was about to say something but Ari stopped him.
"Dad...please....I know you never really like Cyrus...but..." She pulled her hair back,showing the tear drop which still remained on her neck.
The General was speechless for a moment,letting his thumb run over his daughter's potential death mark. Looking up to Cyrus,he gave him a small,approving smile for saving her life.
His booming voice echoed in the room," Thank you Cyrus."
HE separated from Ari to give him a handshake.

Cyrus accepted the General's handshake. "I couldn't have let my best friend die at the hands of the water tribe. After all, I promised to see her to you safely."

The General nodded in understanding. "Well thank you for being there for her."
Soon after that Damien walked in and the General looked up at him. "Damien, will you take Ari and Cyrus to their rooms. I'm sure they could use a rest after todays events."
Damien looked to Ari and Cyrus. "Come on Cyrus, you'll sleep with the soldiers. And Ari, we have a private room set up for you across the camp."

"Fine with me." Cyrus replied to Damien. "At least it beats that tacky old wagon." Cyrus proceded towards the soldier's tents.

Damien nodded," Come on, " He looked over to Ari," Aiden will take you to your room."
Ari nodded and looked to Aiden, giving him a small smile," Alright,lead the way."
Damien went along with Cyrus,leading the way," There's a dinner feast tonight, and I believe my father would like you to be one of the guests of honors."
The last part was spoken with distaste in his mouth, not liking the idea at all.

"Really?! The guest of honor? I've never been a guest of honor before. Guess nobody likes a mischievious guy like me, at least enough to be a guest of honor." He then commented on the distaste in Damien's voice. "What's wrong Damien? Don't like the fact that I'm getting the glory once again? If you asked nicely I may even consider sharing some of my glory with you someday." He ran his fingers through his hair and set it ablaze while he said this. Usually a sign of when he's going into his taunting mode.

Damien didn't say a single word as they walked,his own revenge would come soon enough.
Stopping at the tent and pointing at it he looked back to Cyrus," Here's you're tent, the soldiers will show you to your bunk. We'll have someone come get you for the feast."
With that he left Cyrus to the soldiers who stood at the front of the tent,looking to the new comer.
One spat on the ground oppisite of him and looked to Cyrus," What's you're name?"
((You can play some of the soldier.^.^))

((I'm not good at replying to myself.))
"What's it to ya?" Cyrus replied to the soldier. "What's in a name anyway? It has no meaning, yet it means everything. It has no purpose, but still it does. There's no point, and yet there is. Identification for a single insignificant who may very well be significant. There's no point in telling, but still there's point in knowing, so to ease any confusion, they called me Cyrus when I came into this world and still Cyrus is what they call me."

((lol well not the one I'm controlling...xD I'll have some stuff come up in a bit that you could react to.xD))
The soldier just looked to Cyrus and nodded," Alright.....Come on,we'll show ya your bunk."
He walked into the tent and waited for Cyrus to follow him into the tent,which afterwards he led him to the back of the tent. Pointing to a bed with a thin bed and a thin blanket folded up at the foot of the rusty bed.
"There's ya bed..."
With tha he just gruffed off back to the front of the tent.

"Damien, you set out the oldest and weakest bed just for me. When all the soldiers get actual beds. That soldier must be his right hand." He smirked and pointed at the ground. A serious of loud cracks could be heard coming from underneath that soldier's feet, like he just stepped on exploding firecrackers.

The soldier turned around and looked to Cyrus,a circle of fire surrounded Cyrus,th soldier just walking on outside.
"Just doin' orders...watch it young blood."
One of the soldiers who was hangin' outside went in,talking to the one who had just led Cyrus to his bed.
"'Ey, the General's daughter is back in camp."
The Soldier smirked," Wonderful....I love to see that girl walking around,if ya know what I man."
Half of the soldiers laughed," Come on,lets go greet the little princess."
And with that they left the tent,ignoring Cyrus,not really caring for him.

There's no way Ari's going to appreciate their 'visit'. Cyrus thought. With a blaze in his eyes, fire surrounded his arms. "Mega fire drain." he whispered. A small surge occured, then all the fire energy around him, including that from fire users, surged into his body. The radius was rather small, and only one in tune with fire could sense the energy moving. Most of the soldiers that rushed out to 'greet' Ari were drained of most of their elemental powers. He then passed out due to the emmense strain on his body.
